    Stupidly overpriced motorcycle for sale thread

    This reminds me I saw a CB1100F come up for sale somewhere this month. It doesn't appear to be listed anymore, so I guess they got what they were asking (wasn't cheap)

    Speed camera update (Sept.11)

    I dunno what to say about that other than that's stupid.

    Any recommendations for cylinder head shops / machinists in Niagara/Hamilton?

    Sooooo my dad's Silverado 1500 6.0 L76 suddenly became very unhappy. Possible AFM failure, we are evaluating his options, but considering fixing it myself. I know there have been recent discussions for moto machinists but I am looking for recommendations for folks who do auto cylinder heads that...

    I dunno, I'd be haggling that one down

    A pretty simple shape but still by far the coolest thing VW has ever made

    A game of what bike is it.

    Ok actually I want some explanation as this is something I am absolutely not familiar with. Are you intended to be able to switch between high and low sprocket ratios? If so how do you manage the extra slack?

    Is a simple four into one header straight piped the best exhaust?

    Like reintroducing wolves into Yellowstone I think it's healthy for the GTAM ecosystem. Don't scare them off

    SMS Texts not going through

    Honestly sounds like something got scrambled on their end. I could speculate why but I've never had any visibility into the guts of cellular networks & provisioning and stuff

    The Reasonably Priced Used Motorcycles for Sale Thread

    To each their own and all that, but that is a PROFOUNDLY ugly motorcycle. I am curious about the phallic cover the radiator has been garnished with, is that a custom piece or is that something people pay money for on the aftermarket?

    Need suggestions for a high-end laptop

    Stinkpads?!?! Were you not exposed to consumer grade garbage at the time??

    Need suggestions for a high-end laptop

    There was also a brief period of time where some companies were exploring phase change immersion cooling, with a fluid like 3M Novec. I would embed a video but I can't find the visually impressive one that I'm thinking of now. I think they gave up after being unable to overcome the consumer...

    Need suggestions for a high-end laptop

    Some gaming laptops actually do have barbs for a water cooling loop. It is rare though

    Chain lubricant

    I use gear oil. I barely bother with any cleaning of the chain, but lately I have been giving the sideplates a cursory wipe. 90 weight might be optimal for whatever reason, but honestly I think using different weights/viscosities will barely make a difference. As far as motorcycle chains go I...

    Who is this guy? Sikorsky S-76C C-FBLU

    I completely disagree. Blackhawk = big and scary military thingy to really sell the idea that we are doing something to the contentious neighbours. Them being leased also makes it easier to drop them if the puppet show becomes unnecessary

    "1600 bucks on Marketplace" "That's a lotta money" "That is a lot of money" "No that's a ******* good deal, you can't even get a street bike that runs for 1600 bucks, boys" "Didn't you get the Ninja for less than that?" "Dude I paid 2200 bucks for that Ninja" "The green one?!" "You got ******"...

    2025 Auto Insurance rates

    CAA has been relatively painless for me. Rider's Choice is a broker for them, which makes it even more convenient. I would still switch away if there was a substantially better rate somewhere else, but so far they've been the best for a few years running now

    Cheap helmet review by Ryan F9...options under $200

    I'm gonna guess it's because the distributor didn't order them, so they just don't exist here

    DO NOT automatically renew, DO start a new policy with the same company

    I am very surprised that they wrote you the new policy and didn't just tell you to FOAD.
